DC Comics Rebirth, Dark Days: The Casting #1 and Dark Nights: Metal Spoilers follow.
You may recall that in the New 52 era’s 2011’s Detective Comics #1…
…that the book ended with a pretty macarbe revelation about the Joker.
Then in 2012, DC Comics did a storyline spanning several titles called “Death of the Family”…
…which has the Joker wear his old face skin as a mask…
…although Batman did get to wear it…
…including later in 2013 when the “Joker’s Daughter”, debuting in Catwoman #23, began wearing it and starred in her own one-shot in 2014.
Well, with Dark Days: The Casting #1…
…the Joker himself explains how his face was restored!
Green liquid metal restore him!
However, it doesn’t indicate if he was wearing in skin face or not so it’s possible the Joker’s Daughter still has it in the DC Comics Rebirth era.
And, while the mystery has yet to be solved, we know this Joker is one of the three Batman is searching for from the end of Darkseid War and…
…re-shown in…
…and on DC Universe Rebirth #1.
Interesting times ahead as Dark Nights: Metal #1 hits stands in August 2017!
